This is a significant move - a reduction from 35pppm to 14ppm, with a short term special offer.
It does not cover 0844/3 nor PAYG tariffs. It places the cost of calling 0845 numbers into the same general price band as calls from Virgin Media landlines (the same for a 3 minute call, cheaper for shorter, a little more expensive for longer).
One option being considered by Ofcom is that of a maximum price (rather than the unbundled tariff). I wonder if this is how Vodafone wishes / expects things to go!
The need to reduce the premium charges (for those for whom calls to 01/02/03 numbers are inclusive) highlights the impropriety of any service charge whatsoever being levied on these calls.
